Note 50 — CONTENTS (continued 6)

When Kamehameha died the kingdom fell to Liholiho. Kekuaokalani did not want Liholiho to remove the restrictions of the kingdom; he was in favor of aikapu, therefore he opposed Liholiho, but Kaahumanu50 and the chiefs refused to continue the restrictions. The cause of this reformation was the death of Kamehameha. All the people went into mourning, and it was during that time that the husband and wife ate together, eating all foods that were restricted, and thus ainoa spread down to the battle at Kuamoo with Kekuaokalani.
